C5.7<br />

<strong>Acid</strong>-<strong>Base</strong> Concepts<br />

<strong>Acid</strong>s and bases are important classes of chemicals that are recognized by easily<br />

observed properties in the laboratory. <strong>Acid</strong>s and bases will neutralize each other. <strong>Acid</strong><br />

formulas usually begin with hydrogen, and base formulas are a metal with a hydroxide<br />

ion. As the pH decreases, a solution becomes more acidic. A difference of one pH unit is<br />

a factor of 10 in hydrogen ion concentration.<br />

C5.7x<br />

Chemical reactions are classified according to the fundamental sub molecular changes<br />

that occur. Reactions that involve proton transfer are known as acid/base reactions.<br />

Content Expectations:<br />

C5.7A - Recognize formulas for common inorganic acids, carboxylic acids, and bases<br />

formed from families I and II.<br />

C5.7B - Predict products of an acid-base neutralization.<br />

C5.7C - Describe tests that can be used to distinguish an acid from a base.<br />

C5.7D - Classify various solutions as acidic or basic, given their pH.<br />

C5.7E - Explain why lakes with limestone or calcium carbonate experience less adverse<br />

effects from acid rain than lakes with granite beds.<br />

C5.7f - Write balanced chemical equations for reactions between acids and bases and<br />

perform calculations with balanced equations.<br />

C5.7g - Calculate the pH from the hydronium ion or hydroxide ion concentration.<br />

C5.7h - Explain why sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides contribute to acid rain.<br />

C5.r7i - Identify the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base pairs in an equation.<br />
